flying-v « What else? »
Published on 02/13/14 at 11:38100W amp head, 2 channels crunch / drive.
UTILIZATION
Config very simple, super effective after amp mod (I'll after ...)
This head is very versatile, it goes from clean to high gain without worries.
Manual?? Not worth sacrificing a tree for a totally useless instructions!
SOUNDS
In reality, this amp fits all style and perfectly reproduces the texture of the guitare.Un his right and very punchy with my flyng-v (EMG81), more round and fat sound with my Les paul (EMG81) and its totally different with my telecaster (hotrail.) In short, it respects the color by adding a Soldano touch '! circuit the clean channel is similar to that of SLO100 and the Drive channel similar to Hotrod100 +.
Thank you SOLDANO MR.
OVERALL OPINION
So to clarify the mods I've done it: clean channel: Adding switches clean / cunch and bright with Edit the circuit level gain knob and the filter clean.
Channel drive: Modified input resistances and gain circuit based on the SLO100.
Lamps preamp: JJ 12AX7 Tesla lamps powers replaced by a quartet 5881WXT home SOVTEK (similar to mounting SLO100) BIAS setting..
Result the head is much more clean and accurate, it is very close to the legendary sound of the Soldano.Niveau gain, I play metal "old school", I do not exceed 3.5, pure high gain.Attention must still Remember this is a low cost made in china head, but designed by Mike Soldano.Ca American sounds at will, without going into exaggeration, but he must love the 'grain' Soldano.
The clean, after mod is very good, we play Mark Knopfler carefree, only downside équalo common to both channels so you have preferred the clean .... or drive damage.
If it again, I persist and sign, I buy even two!
For about 500 € and 200 € modif was an amp that overlooks widely marshall and other low vacuum cleaners.
